TL;DR: A high-quality reference genome assembly for threespine stickleback fish is developed and it is indicated that reuse of globally shared standing genetic variation has an important role in repeated evolution of distinct marine and freshwater sticklebacks, and in the maintenance of divergent ecotypes during early stages of reproductive isolation.

TL;DR: A quantitative trait loci study of a suite of 54 position traits describing body shapes of two threespine stickleback species suggested that sex differences may provide variation upon which selection can act, consistent with predictions of the geometric model of adaptation.

Constraints on utilization of the EDA-signaling pathway in threespine stickleback evolution.
TL;DR: In this paper, the evolutionary radiation of threespine sticklebacks provides a powerful model for testing the molecular basis of parallel evolution in vertebrates, and the presence of highly modular cis-acting control sequences may be a key factor influencing the likelihood that particular genes will serve as the basis of major phenotypic changes in nature.
